The suit of the card (spade, heart, club, diamond) is irrelevant and not used in determining the card's value.

The score is calculated as follows:

Stock Bonus + Pyramid Bonus + 500 - Time - Pyramid Penalty
Stock Bonus= 50 for each card remaining in the stock pile at the end of the game.
Pyramid Bonus = 50 for each card successfully removed from the pyramid or the waste pile if the value of the card or the sum of the values of the cards is equal to thirteen.
Pyramid Penalty= 25 for each card removed from the pyramid or the waste pile if the value of the card or the sum of the values of the cards is equal to twelve or fourteen.
Time = The time (in seconds) to complete the game.
